Watch the Dateline episode 'The Devil's in the Details' now
Beckley, West Virginia.
It's the kind of place where neighbors turn to family.
Where weekends mean barbecues and Little League games.
The kind of place where two people can build a beautiful life.
Michael and Natalie Cochran had done exactly that.
A dream home.
A growing business.
Two beautiful kids.
And then, everything changed.
Natalie told friends she'd been diagnosed with leukemia and needed aggressive treatment.
Then, Michael died suddenly.
The doctors said it was a medical mystery.
Well, it was certainly a mystery.
One that would end up being just the tip of the iceberg.
And when investigators got to the bottom of it, they would uncover a twisted trail of betrayal.
